TRINITY t'tll,I.ICGE SCIIUUI. IlI'It'UIiIJ 0'3l.'l.1l'gl' Slum' George Ince spent five years ot' his life at T. C. S., from 1884 to 1888. He was born August lst. 1873, and died on July 3rd, 1928. He was one ofthe most popular boys ot' his period, on account of his kindly disposition and generous spirit. This popularity followed him throughout his future life, and he has always inspired affection in his as- sociates, from time to time. He had the great distinction of winning the Open Championship in Track Athletics in 1888, although he was eligible for the fifteen-year and under class, which corresponded nearly with the Junior School ot' today. This was considered a great achievement, especially as he was competing with boys three and four years older than himself. The last few years of his life had been painful, as he suffered severely from rheumatism, and his death is really a happy release. l'p to the last, however, he maintained his cheery outlook and fortitude. Qlllilliant tbvurgv flute BilIy , as he was invariably and affectionately known by all his friends, entered the Junior School in September 1925, at the age of twelve and a half years. He took a very full share in all that the School did in work and play and he passed into the Middle School in September 1927, being placed in the Shell Form where he soon rose to the head of the Form and was promoted to the Lower Remove. In the Midsummer examinations he was ranked head of the new Form in spite of a month's absence through sickness. He was a very keen Athlete and did particularly well in the Gym- nasium, receiving his Littleside colours at the Annual Competition. He left for the holidays at the end of Trinity Term apparently recovered from his sickness. The death of his father shortly after his return home affected him very deeply and a fresh infection attack- ed him and proved fatal on August 9th, He was the third of his name in three generations to be a member of the School, and his short, bright, active life gave pro- mise of adding further lustre to one of the School's greatest names. Our sincere sympathy is given to his mother who in a few short weeks lost both husband and son.

In this regard we hope these pages speak I-trl'1ll l'llSt'IX4'S. They may be lacking in worth but not in sincerity ol' el'- fort: and it is our hope that this modest beginning rnawc mature, through a year's experimenting. into a publica- tion ot' which the New School may well be proud. Now, Trinity College School is more than an ar- chitectural pile: it is an institution built ot' the practi- cal and spiritual expression ot' her boys, past and pres- ent. If we can record the performance ot' this wider connotation ot' T. C. at frequent intervals. we shall all be brought together twice- -or at the otltsitlc ont-es a month. To that end we ask you to lay aside your mod- esty, put some of your self in these pages. and contri- bute to the building ot' :t magazine that inay, through your efforts, rank with the best Canadian publications. --The Record.

TRINITY tI'OI.l.EGl'I Stfllfltll. lil'It'Oltll I THE RETURN OF HERLOCIQ SHOLNIES The Ghost of the Pantheon. Snow fell thick on the deserted Rue de St. Antoine. while most of Paris slept. In one ot' the tall narrow mansionsof other days Sholmes and Jotson before a cosy fire talked while the snow continued to obscure the long windows, and vanish in a moment. Sholmes' attention was drawn to the window. Like a snowflake on the river, A moment here, then gone for ever. he quoted. That's the way of it, my dear Jotson: my reputation, gone for ever. Not at all, said the docto1', not for ever. The snow-flake returns to mother ocean to be later taken up to the clouds, or else evaporated by the morrow's sung and so it comes again with another frost. Very comforting, but how long, my God, how long? Sholmes was plainly distressed by his blunder in the case of The Cultured Pearls. I ani getting old, Jotson, just old enough to be terribly fallible. Don't despair, old friend, the snowflake will fall again. Tomorrow, next day, next month will come the great chance. never fear. A month had passed since the notable failure, a month since the great detective had torn the lovely Ramona into a thousand shreds as being his false inspirer. Not once since then had he lifted himself out of the contemplation of his sad failure, so that poor Jotson was condemned to a most mournful society. Despite their seeming great friendship, relations were strained and the atmosphere hung with irritability and impatience of reply that had been such strangers to their life-long association. J otson had done his best to improve matters, but the detective seemed continually obsessed with the fear that he was absurd to all eyes, even his friend's. Look here, Sholmes, said Jotson, this has got to stop. You know very well all men are fallible, and I admire your great virtues, both as a man and a detective the same as ever. Let's go to bed, old friend, and tomorrow let's wake up in a new frame of mind. Good night, Sholmes. The detective took the proffered hand but said nothing, evidently deeply moved by his friend's gesture. Over breakfast next morning Le Matin claimed their whole attention. Leaning against a wall of sugar- bowl and cruet-stand, its staring head-lines told the story: GHOST MYSTERY AT THE PANTHEON Panic-stricken Full House and Sholmes was reading in English: Last night close on eleven the audience at the Pan- theon were driven into the worst panic Paris has seen since the fire at the Opera House. At the close of Harley the Hypnotists turn, in the dim light of the body of the house, a great figure of gigantic proportions suspended in mid-air dominated the huge throng for a full minute. Then a woman screamedg men shoutedg uproar, panic. Exit-doors fell under the terrorized rush of the mob, and, needless to say, many were injured in the panic, but for- tunately no deaths resulted. It is impossible to arrive at any theory, though it is rumored that there is some connection between the phenomenon and the hyponotist's turn. The savants scout this idea as impossible and advise the authorities to search for some practical joker, who has used some unheard of means of launching into mid-air the picture of the monster. At present, this is the theory the police are following, and it is hoped the matter will be cleared up before evening. The Pantheon management are natur- ally disturbed, but apparently the show will go on as usual tonight. What do you think of that, Jotson ? Is this my chance, said the detective eagerly. The medical man Was all excitement. Most assuredly, Sholmes, and the best of allg the chance to solve a problem for thousands of l'arisians. llon't wait to be asked Hill-r your services. That will l. Jotson, and at the moment, said the detective, rising. t'onn- with me to the Pantheon. where we shall be sure to find the niauagt-r. It was no great distance to the music hall. and the two, dispensing with a cab, hurried through the snow- covered streets as best they could. and arrived at the Pautheon shortly after ten. As they expected the man- ager was in his oflice, but with the police. llere was occasion for Sholmes' greatest annoyance being displayed. The police had again and again obstructed his actions and, though the most generous of men he was now accustomed to treat them with cold contempt. Un the back of his card he wrote in English: Have confidence I can solve your problem in 2-1 hours. See me at once. please. The stage-door porter was sent up with the message, returning in a trice with the news that Mon- sieur Flaubert would see them at once. Buoyecl with a new hope, Sholmes dragged the doctor up a narrow flight of stairs, where they had to give way to four official gentlemen of the stamp the detective had long hated. Hut he was politeness itself and stood aside to allow the otli- cers a comfortable passage down the stairs. Flaubert was at his door to meet them, and in broken English he welcomed them effusively: Enter, messieurs, I have need of you. You will save to me the good name, n'est-ce pas? Sholmes, while choosing a comfortable chair, reassured his host and asked him to tell his story carefully, omitting nothing. He did so, adding nothing to the newspaper account except that he gave greater horror to the apparition: a great distorted body of human shape with a skull for head, and long gorilla-like arms that clawed the air for a victim. Sholmes saw nothing was to be gained from his tale, so started a series of questions that the manager answered impatiently. How long have you been in the theatre business, monsieur? I am occupied in it since twenty-two years, M. Sholmes, and have no trouble of no matter what sort. That is not true, returned Sholmes quickly. When was that picture of yours taken'. ' The detective was pointing to a cabinet portrait of the man- ager on his desk. Less than a year ago, was the halting reply. Well, Sholmes went on. that is the picture of a man of not more than fifty, while today you look not a day under sixty-five. But, monsieur. figure to yourself how much I am deranged. This horrible affair has given me twenty years of more, said the Frenchman, wringing his hands. No, returned Sholmes, that would not cause you to lose twenty or thirty pounds. have your face so creased with lines. or streak your hair with white. all in one night. No, my friend. you will have to tell me of the danger that has been hanging over you since last year before I go a step farther in your case. If not, I shall tell you myself in two or three hours, so please save me this valuable time. You astound me, monsieur. stammered the man- ager : how can a little affair of a great singer given to the 1-. No, impossible. You have deceived yourself. monsieur. I can tell you nothing to aid. Very well, said the detective impatiently. good morning, but before I go. let me have two seats in the stalls for the second house tonight, and after the per- formance or the panic I shall be waiting here to reveal the joker. Forgive me. monsieur. you are too kind. but I assure you in a manner of the most sincere that I am incapable of to aid you. But here are places: my signature on this card to you makes the house free. Sholmes took the card and pushed Jotson before him towards the door. Once outside, the detective was a new man: his step was quicker and more springy. while he chatted in the most aimless fashion about the weather. But. hardly had they left the theatre five minutes behind when he stopped Jotson and said quickly: You see, don't you '?
